Understanding Plastic Surgery Procedures Properly: Nose Foreign Body Removal Surgery, Accurate Diagnosis and Customized Surgery Are Important

Rhinoplasty is the part of plastic surgery with the highest number of revision surgeries due to complications.

Most of these complications are often caused by implants. So today, we will look into safer nose foreign body removal in revision rhinoplasty.

As plastic surgery has become more widespread, illegal procedures performed by unqualified people have also been taking place. If you are tempted by low prices and undergo such illegal procedures, also called “unlicensed” or “back-alley” surgery, the likelihood of complications from a mistaken operation is high, so it is advisable to avoid them.

Illegal procedures can also leave unnecessary foreign substances in the treated area. In such cases, foreign body removal surgery is needed to remove them and prevent more serious complications.

Gangnam Diva Plastic Surgery Director Kim Jong-myung, a full member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons, explained, “In the case of nose plastic surgery, in addition to illegal procedures, unapproved products may be injected into the skin layer, which can cause nose complications and inflammation due to foreign-body reactions.” He added, “Even in such cases, the inflammatory tissue should be safely removed through nose foreign body removal surgery.”

Types of Nose Foreign Bodies

Types of foreign bodies in the nose include non-medical products such as paraffin, industrial silicone, illegal collagen, and Vaseline.

If such illegal products have been inserted into the nose, the foreign body must be removed through procedures such as paraffin removal surgery or industrial silicone removal surgery.

Director Kim Jong-myung said, “If complications arise after procedures such as fillers or fat grafting, they can also be improved through facial foreign body removal surgery such as permanent filler removal, and this also applies when an implant has been inserted in an unsuitable position, causing dissatisfaction.”

Nose Foreign Body Removal

Nose foreign body removal can be performed by choosing either an incision method or a non-incision method, depending on the type of foreign body, the cause of the complication, and the symptoms.

Incision Method

Nose foreign body removal surgery using the incision method should be performed after accurately identifying the location of the foreign body through ultrasound.

Director Kim Jong-myung said, “It is advisable to proceed with the smallest possible incision so that damage and distortion of the surrounding tissue can be minimized.”

Non-Incision Method

For non-incision nose foreign body removal, it is also important to accurately identify the area of the foreign body using ultrasound.

The foreign body should be confirmed with ultrasound, and the degree of the complication should be accurately assessed so that the procedure can be performed in a way that minimizes damage to normal tissue.

A method of dissolving the foreign body using a laser or injection can also be added, and it has the advantage of causing less tissue damage and scarring than the incision method.

Precautions When Choosing a Revision Rhinoplasty Clinic

Director Kim Jong-myung said, “In cases where nose complications have occurred due to unlicensed surgery, or where rhinoplasty was performed using illegal products such as paraffin or industrial silicone, complications caused by foreign-body reactions may arise, so they must be removed through nose foreign body removal.” He added, “Depending on the location and cause of the foreign body, as well as the degree of the complication, a customized treatment plan should be established to minimize damage to the surrounding tissue. It is important to choose a specialist with skilled technique and proceed only after sufficient consultation so that there are no complications such as skin irregularities or depressions after surgery.”

He continued, “When choosing medical staff, you should select a team with clinical experience in a variety of rhinoplasty complication cases, sufficient know-how, and effective techniques, as this can help remove foreign bodies safely.” He added, “When choosing a foreign body removal clinic, it is also a good idea to carefully check whether the surgeon personally performs everything from consultation to surgery, and whether the clinic has a systematic post-operative care system.”
